Description: "You don't know about me without yo have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain't no matter," declares Huck at the start of one of the greatest books in American literature. Filled with all the humor, suspense and sheer excitement of its predecessor, ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN is the more profound and accomplished creation. The tale of two outcasts journey down the treacherous and nurturing Mississippi River, ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN is a nostalgic portrayal of a world Twain knew intimately, and a moving story of a boy who must make his own way in an often cruel and violet society that counts it a sin to help a runaway slave.
